Re: Soy Bean Sprouts

[Guest guest]

They can be sprouted, but some here have said they really shouldn't be

eaten raw because they are considered toxic. I have eaten them raw and

didn't suffer any ill effects, but they are not my favorite.

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has tried sprouting soy beans. Can they be

sprouted and what about taste?

Thanks

Very good answer, Deanna to the question posed by CVETTE, lol. Whe I

read the question I wondered if I could come up with something to say

in response, considering some of the controversies we'd been discussing

here at this forum.

Cvette -- look over the posts from the past month or two -- we had been

discussing soy beans extensively and there seems to be various thoughts

about soy in general. Let us know what you think if yours do sprout,

okay ?

Yes, and I didn't like them very much. With so many other really great

tasting options, I won't sprout them again. They might be better cooked

(like black beans). If you have some to sprout, why not just try a batch or

two and see for yourself? As far as toxicity, I don't think they would be a

problem in small quantities, but I don't consume large quantities of

anything soy, raw or processed.

I don't have a recipe but I just wanted to let you know that I have

read numerous past & recent articles which state that soy actually is

not healthy for us (the possible exceptions being fermented soy,

i.e., as in soy sauce or miso soup).

My prayer is that all will ask Jesus Christ (Yeshua the Messiah) into

their heart & follow Him so that they may know His eternal salvation,

love, light, ultimate peace, power, strength, comfort, mercy, grace,

beauty, healing, hope, joy & blessings! May God bless you all richly

always in all ways for you are so very precious in His sight!

Dear uscgmama:

I recently read a book and I apologize I cannot find my notes on it.

It was on osteoporosis and eating naturally. It stated that the

traditional way of making tofu neutralized the substances in the

soybeans making them digestible and the nutrition available to the

body. It then stated that some of the current commercial ways of

making tofu do not allow for this neutralization to take place and

recommended educating oneself about this. I do remember the mention

of miso however, if you are concerned on this matter, I would caution

you against using any soy product without investigating which methods

the company who made it is using. Traditional or not.

As you signed your posting with a religious message, I thought you

might be interested in Rev. Malkus who bases his Hallelujah Acres

Diet on guidelines he interprets in the Bible. I do not know what

info he has on soybeans but as he himself has research done, as well

as studying the results of other scientific studies, that supports

the teachings he is sharing. You may find more studies there to read

that would be of interest to you. Although I am not Christian, I

have in the past subscribed to his weekly newsletter and the

information backed up by research that I have learned (especially

about sugar which is a substance that makes me sick and I am slowly

with internal guidance removing it from my things to eat)has been a

great help. There are many messengers in the universe and I am glad

that your soul has found the one it wanted. I too am having my life

enriched by messengers, isn't it wonderful!

In love and light, -Lee

As long as you soak any beans overnight in water and

get rid of the water the next morning most toxics will

be removed and it will be save to make tofu etc.Best

of luck.

I buy them already sprouted at Vinh Phat an Asian supermarket and the

owner has stated they need to be cooked longer. People eat soy beans in

many stages of heated conditions and the cooking pf the sprout is just

the way Asians do it. Probably because the sprouts taste better cooked.

The beans may indeed digest differently when sprouted and raw. They

taste somewhat chalky raw, not as sweet as mung, and more full flavored

or more rootlike when cooked. The cooked head has a nutty flavor. They

can hold up to longer periods of cooking better. Used with tofu mixed

with cornstarch like a patty will make something like egg foo young. Or

stir fry and also in soup. Pinch the head off from the tail. I have

never seen them use the raw sprouts.
